WHAT THE WORD "GOD" MEANS TO ME ☁️🕉

Hindus believe God is one entity that takes a variety of forms, so I will refer to God as one.

•

God gives me strength.

My mom admires people who don't believe in God because she believes she is too weak to make it through without faith in a higher power. It's an interesting perspective.

•

God makes me emotional.

I went to the temple last Friday with my parents and nearly cried as I went and paid my respects to all the deities. The power in that room was overwhelming.

•

God makes me feel gratitude.

I thank God and my parents for everything, from food to concert tickets to achievements.

•

God connects me to others.

Two of my best friends are devout Christians and one is a devout Muslim. I am so happy to have found people to discuss religion and God with, albeit in different ways. I learn from them, and they learn from me. Most importantly, we pray for each other.
